on a Pocket PC PDA. The software communicates with the mixing valve and allows the user to: Access Levels Password Administration: Add new users and change passwords. Entry Level: Set outlet temperatures, flow times and do thermal disinfection. Engineering Level: Enable service flush and disinfection, view valve information, set commissioning and service data. System Requirements The installation CD is designed to run on Microsoft Windows 98/NT/2000/XP operating systems. The programmer software is designed to run on Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 and Microsoft Mobile Windows for Pocket PC 2003. INSTALLATION Please make sure that you have installed Microsoft ActiveSync on to your PC (supplied with your PDA). With your PDA connected to your computer follow the instructions below.
